Regardless of status, Mercenary Paradise only required professional qualities .
There were all sorts of mercenaries in it, but they had one common characteristic: their fervent love for wars . Wars were everything to them and they sought profits unmindful of perils .
In other words, ‘As long as someone is willing to pay me, I’m willing to slave for that person . There is only money in my eyes—no right or wrong; no good and evil . Just like how I can serve God, I can serve Satan, too . ’
‘Desperadoes’ was another way of describing them .
Mercenary Paradise had four aces, and they were Vermilion Bird, Peaceful Tyrant, Snow Fox, and Oceanus .
Snow Fox and Vermillion Bird specialized in assassination and infiltration operation respectively, whereas Peaceful Tyrant and Oceanus were well-deserving aces of the mercenaries for having outstanding leadership .
People who wandered down this path did not have much loyalty to their countries, nor did they have a concept between good and evil or right and wrong .
They were professional soldiers who could be employed by any countries or individuals to fight in wars regardless of national interests and any other consequences .
The only two things that motivated them were money and their proclivities .
How could his men be compared to those war machines?
With those ace mercenaries in service, there was no chance for his men to move even a step closer .
“Since things have turned out this way, we must bring that child back to the Mu family; only then will we have the chance to act!” he ordered .
Given their current situation, that was the only way .
The boy could definitely be brought back if Mu Sheng were to step in .
With his current power and authority, he could easily deploy a troop from the military anytime he wanted .
Mu Wanrou hung up the phone with gritted teeth and took in a deep breath of cool air .
A lamp was lit in the study .
Seated at the desk, Mu Sheng was going through the financial statements for this year’s new quarter . With his spectacles on, his withered hand flipped through the pages as he scanned through them expressionlessly .
Pom, pom, pom!
There were light taps on the door .
“Who is it?” He raised his head to squint at the door .
“Grandpa, it’s me, Wanrou!”
Her gentle voice rang from the other side of the door . “May I come in? I have something to tell you; it’s very important!”
He pondered for a moment before placing the report aside and raising his voice . “Come in!”
Pushing open the door, she walked straight to him and placed down the cup of tea she had brought in for him . With bowed head, she announced neutrally, “Grandpa, I’ve found the child . ”
“Oh?” He was still wondering what important matter it was when she suddenly brought up the child . He raised a brow at once . “The child?!”
“Yes! I’ve found the child’s whereabouts . Should we bring him back to the Mu residence?”
She asked tentatively while sizing him up .
The old man immediately stood up while banging the table, apparently in an agitated state . “Where is he? Bring me to him! We’ll go now without a moment’s delay and bring the child back right away!”
“Now? It’s late at night now . Can your body take it?”
His facial muscles twitched a little in his excitement . With a gratified expression on his face, he dismissed her concern . “You don’t have to care so much! Make arrangements now and call people to accompany us in bringing back the child!”
She smiled obediently in return . “Yes, grandpa . I’ll make the necessary arrangements right away . ”
